As two areas of low pressure develop and move toward NC, much of the week will be in the upper 50s with periods of on-and-off heavy rains that could affect your Monday evening and Tuesday morning commutes. 

WRAL Weather Alert Day: Needed rain, coolest weather in months take us through mid-week

<p>I'm meteorologist Chris Michaels, rain gradually moving back into the area, perhaps as soon as the evening commute, but likely as we head deeper into the evening overnight hours and into at least Tuesday morning before gradually starting to turn a little more scattered heading into Tuesday evening. Could be disruptive to some commutes out there, but overall, most of this rain is beneficial. When you look at the Blend of forecast data, it shows about 1 to 2 inches across our part of uh North Carolina. Again, if that were to come to fruition, that would actually be some really good news given the fact that a lot of us are in a drought. And some other good news for you is that this clears out of here in time for Halloween, although it will be cool and breezy, trick or treat temperatures mainly in the 50s, so make sure you have an extra layer out there.</p>
